Spark Unlimited has revealed that their forthcoming shooter game, Legendary: The Box will be published by Gamecock Media Group. The game is about the scenario when the world is abruptly thrust into chaos and disorder when ancient creatures of myth are unleashed into modern day society.
About Legendary – The Box:
- Legendary: The Box tells the story of Charles Deckard, an art thief who is duped into stealing Pandora’s Box. When he opens the box, he releases hordes of beasts thought to be fictional, such as werewolves and gryphons into an unwary modern world. A full scale war between man and myth begins, and it is quickly made difficult by the actions of powerful secret societies. As the person responsible for releasing this terror, Deckard’s unintentionally becomes the only person capable of containing it once more and saving civilization from being destroyed by the terrifying creatures of the box.
Harry Miller, Head of Development, Gamecock Media Group comments, “If there is one genre that needs a shot in the arm, it’s the first-person shooter. Spark’s Legendary: The Box is going to be a classic, in terms of story, game-play and technology. I am enthused by where they are taking the genre.”
Craig Allen, CEO, Spark Unlimited says, “Like most developers, we have always had a dream game that we’ve secretly been working on. We have made a name for ourselves with World War II first-person shooters, but Legendary: The Box is our labor of love. It’s a thrill to work with Gamecock; they want to see the game completed exactly as we envision it.”
Legendary: The Box will release for the PC and next generation consoles in the spring of 2008. It seems that Gamecock Media Group is on a roll these days. Just last week, they announced they will publish the sci-fi action game, Section 8.
